The poll, conducted by NPR, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, more than half of whites (55 percent) surveyed say they believe there is discrimination against white people in America today.

A much smaller percentage say they have personally experienced discrimination.

Asked when they experienced this discrimination:

19 percent said when applying for jobs

13 percent said when being considered for a promotion

11 percent said when applying to college

NPR reports that income affected how white people answered the question of discrimination.

Lower and moderate-income white Americans were more likely to say that white people are discriminated against and report that they have personally experienced it.

On the flip side, 84 percent of white people believe discrimination exists against racial and ethnic minorities.

The survey also found the percentage of each group that believes discrimination exists against them in America today:

92 percent of African Americans

78 percent Latinos

75 percent Native Americans

61 percent Asian Americans

Additionally, 90 percent of LGBTQ Americans said that said that discrimination existed against their group.
